I completely agree. Every time I look at /r/AskFeminists there are multiple questions about the most ridiculous things. Makes me wonder what people think Feminism is, when people seem so concerned about seeing our views of events in popular culture.

Its even sillier when there are long threads analyzing the societal implications of Taylor Swift lyrics or an LMFAO video everybody will forget about in 2 months. I know we're not supposed to call anything trivial but I think this kind of thing makes r/feminism seem like a bunch of white upper class women who have everything sooooo good that they literally need to make up things to complain about

Yeah exactly. Get a feminist opinion on the criminal code regarding abortion in x country? The conditioning of children into gender roles? The persistent discrimination in daily life? Nope, got to know what they think of what this pop star says.

there is better stuff that could be happening in /r/AskFeminists than "hey, I was wondering what feminists think about this blog post I found!"

As long as the questions are reasonable and within our posting rules, then any topic can be discussed. Of course, there is no expectation that all questions will be answered, participation in threads is completely voluntary.
